The PlayStation 4 exclusive racing game, Driveclub, had its fair share of problems during the game's release and after as we're still awaiting the promised PS Plus Edition. As a result, Sony has announced a "restructuring" for developer Evolution Studios, meaning there will be layoffs.
Sony's goal with the restructure is to allow the developer focus on Driveclub, particularly on the release of the PS Plus Edition.
There will be an attempt at relocating affected employees throughout Sony studios, but unfortunately not every staff member will see a relocation. Here's Sony's official statement on the restructuring:
Evolution Studios will now focus on DriveClub as a service going forward, in particular, the important launch of the PS Plus Edition. We will be restructuring Evolution Studios to ensure that SCE WWS and in particular, Evolution Studios are in the best position to achieve these goals.
Our first party development studios are key to our creative strategy and we are very excited about the future projects being worked on and the role Evolution Studios will play.
We will be looking to relocate team members throughout the studios, but unfortunately some redundancies will be necessary and in those cases we will assist staff in any way we can.
Good luck to all of those affected by the "restructure."
